About this mod Author’s original text
Info
This mod is based on the EngiGamingRedux mod, which itself was based on another mod called EngiGaming. (Both are long deprecated and unusable in modern game versions.) The original EngiGaming mod added three new skills to the Engineer, but its main purpose was really just to provide a different M1 skill, as the default one is rather underwhelming.
This mod focuses purely on the alternative m1 and does not include the other two skills.
His alternative M1 is a powerful automatic Gauss Shotgun that excels at close-range self-defense but lacks AoE and mid-to-long-range capabilities, and it suffers from falloff. It was made primarily to make playing Engineer more engaging.
Changelog
Versions:
0.3.0
- Fixed skill not registering as primary.
- Changed cooldown behavior to be more similar to Artificer’s M1, in that it now ignores the 0.5s minimum cooldown regardless of any applied cooldown reduction.
0.2.0
- Fixed a major bug with "Thermal Harpoons" that caused the cooldown of the Gauss skill to reset to the full eight bullets instantly when switching out of "Thermal Harpoons", allowing for infinite skill use.
0.1.0
- Initial release
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
